Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator.

Mallrats wasn't a very good movie, but if you ever have the opportunity to pick up the original DVD release they have a video commentary track that is probably funnier than the movie. They rip on Affleck, talk about what a biatch Shannon Doherty was, and Smith keeps pointing out what he spent money on because he didn't know how he was going to manage to spend 3 million on a movie.

I can't decide if I feel bad for the dumbass who drove the Hoverround onto he escalator and almost certainly hurt herself, or if I think it's funny that she just kept getting flipped around, strapped into that spinning chair of doom.

I still can't wrap my mind around why she even remotely thought that was a good idea.

That specific video came through here a while ago. Some farker pointed out the specific subway station in Boston that happened at, and said the elevators were out of order at the time. The escalator was the only way out for her.

Your video DOES NOT NEED A FARKING SOUNTRACK! It is usually some irritating barrage of noise that actually takes away from the content on screen.

In most cases, the ambient audio would actually be more entertaining.

STOP IT!

Sincerely,

All internet viewers.

Seconded, I turned it off the second that loud racket started. I could have muted it but I'm not a fan of compilation videos anyway, it's always a bunch of old videos I've already seen a hundred times.

INeedAName:there's a metro stop in DC with the longest escalator in the eastern hemisphere

Two hundred and thirteen feet!? The longest one I've been on is the one inside Bonneville Dam and that is only sixty feet long.I bet you could smoke a ciggy before reaching bottom on the one you're talking about.

Uzzah:byelii: the rosslyn one takes 3 minutes to go either up or down the full length.

Not if you walk your fat ass up it (or down, I guess) as it goes.

Seriously, what are people doing just standing around on it? Sightseeing? "Ooh, look! Cement!"

/used to like the days it was broken down, watching people have to trudge their way up it

A few years ago the Dupont Circle one broke down (even longer than Rosslyn) and the brother of a Washington Post reporter had a heart attack and died. Turns out if you're out of shape walking up 27 flights of stairs is a bad idea.
